  3. Fast fuel system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fast_fuel_system

    A refueling Fast Fill System allows speedy and safe refueling for many types of equipment. This includes mining, heavy construction, busses and railroad. Most larger earthmoving and mining vehicles with diesel fuel tanks over 150 US gallons (570 L) are equipped with a refueling Fast Fill System. These refueling Fast Fill Systems utilize an ...

  4. Aerial refueling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerial_refueling

    A KC-135 Stratotanker refuels an F-16 Fighting Falcon using a flying boom. Aerial refueling (), or aerial refuelling (), also referred to as air refueling, in-flight refueling (IFR), air-to-air refueling (AAR), and tanking, is the process of transferring aviation fuel from one aircraft (the tanker) to another (the receiver) while both aircraft are in flight.

  5. Fire-and-forget - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire-and-forget

    The RAF's Brimstone missile is a fire-and-forget anti-tank missile.. Fire-and-forget [1] [2] is a type of missile guidance which does not require further external intervention after launch such as illumination of the target or wire guidance, and can hit its target without the launcher being in line-of-sight of the target.

  6. Wet wing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wet_wing

    A wet wing (also referred to as integral fuel tanks [1]) is an aerospace engineering technique where an aircraft's wing structure is sealed and used as a fuel tank. The use of wet wings has become common among civilian designs, from large transport aircraft, such as airliners , to small general aviation aircraft.

  7. Wet-bulb globe temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wet-bulb_globe_temperature

    The wet-bulb globe temperature (WBGT) is a measure of environmental heat as it affects humans. Unlike a simple temperature measurement, WBGT accounts for all four major environmental heat factors: air temperature, humidity, radiant heat (from sunlight or sources such as furnaces), and air movement (wind or ventilation).

  8. Groundwater recharge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groundwater_recharge

    Recharge can help move excess salts that accumulate in the root zone to deeper soil layers, or into the groundwater system. Tree roots increase water saturation into groundwater reducing water runoff. [3] Flooding temporarily increases river bed permeability by moving clay soils downstream, and this increases aquifer recharge. [4]

  9. Rebreather diving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rebreather_diving

    In an oxygen rebreather, once the loop has been thoroughly flushed, the mixture is effectively static at 100% oxygen, and the partial pressure is a function only of depth. In some early oxygen rebreathers the diver had to manually open and close the valve to the oxygen cylinder to refill the counter-lung each time the volume got low.
